TapeAlert Log

The TapeAlert log page is page 2Eh. There are 64 parameters, numbered from 1 through 64. Only parameters 1 through 18, 20 through 23, and 29 through 39 have definitions for tape drives without attached loaders. The remaining parameters are always 0.

 

All parameters are 1 byte long. Each parameter is either 0 to indicate the

 

 

corresponding condition has not occurred or 1 to indicate that the corresponding

 

condition has occurred. All log parameters are cleared when the log is read. The

 

Log is also cleared at power-on, on a reset condition, or by a LOG SELECT

 

 

command. Specific flags may be cleared when corrective action has removed the

 

condition that caused the flag to be set.

 

 

 

 

 

The supported parameters are listed in Table 22. For a description of service

 

actions associated with these parameters, refer to the IBM Ultrium Internal Tape

Drive Models T200 and T200F Setup, Operator, and Service Guide or the IBM 3580

Ultrium Tape Drive Setup, Operator, and Service Guide.
